London Christmas lights really light up the capital's streets during the bleak winter months. Christmas in London just wouldn’t be Christmas without the stunning array of decorative lights that adorn the streets throughout the festive season.

Switched on for 2014
The switching on of Christmas lights in the West End have become landmark occasions in London each year, drawing crowds in their thousands in the approach to Christmas. This year the Regent Street and Oxford Street lights are bound to bring in the crowds once more, guaranteeing festive fun for visitors to the capital’s premier shopping district. From the Trafalgar Square Christmas tree and headline grabbing Covent Garden display to the more humble but equally cheery lights on high streets across the city, these festive illuminations bring light and colour to London throughout the winter.

The Christmas lights at Westfield London welcome in the festive season to one of the city's largest shopping centres. With special guest Rita Ora flicking the switch and joining in the fun on the night, you can be sure to get into the Christmas spirit.
